i make them all the time with the number of braids i want- to achieve the size i want---never thought about it being (a problem) with anyone....anyone looking at the quilt is going to believe it is EXACTLY as it's supposed to be...since you are the one making it-EXACTLY as you want it to be. French Braids are one of my all time favorites because i can so easily adapt them to what ever my need- i make french braid table runners, up to california king bed quilts and everything in between- just by adding more braids, more fabrics in the run, wide & narrow braids...it is a *sky's the limit* type of versatile pattern.
